F-Landing






Everyone knows where
They were at the time
If they were there
Watching—
Twenty July Nineteen Sixty Nine
Neil Armstrong stepping off the stair—
Mother Earth's first
Moon-Landing.

Everyone knows what
Breakfast they ate
If they sat on their butt
Watching—
Ten November Two Thousand Eight
Joe Scarborough spouting off the smut—
Morning Joe's no-no
F-Landing.



MSNBC. The Place For Expletives.

  1. I like the way you commit this commentary to verse and link it to the moon-landing. Maybe it's a case of the moon and the loon!

    Indeed. This was a delicious moment. And I was watching it at the time!
